The first question of the CCR is "How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?"
The main convention that our product challenges is showing the monster attacking people in the opening of the film to hook the audience. Our film only implies the violence using audio and visual techniques.
The main social issue that is represented in our film opening is how the government remains mostly unchecked by the population and they are able to do. This can sometimes lead to disasters as seen in our film opening
Another social issue is represented in the film opening is how human beings as a race believes that they are above nature and have absolute control over it. This is not true and often leads to problems, as seen in the opening.
The second question of the CCR is "How does your product engage with audiences and how would it be distributed as a real media text?"
The way my product engages with its audiences is through the creation of atmosphere and suspense. The suspense is created when the monster is not shown and the atmosphere is created by the dark and eerie setting. The audiences are also engaged by a minimalistic horror approach, meaning that the monsters final form and all the violence is created completely by the viewers mind. This means that the monster can look differently to each person who watches it.
Because my product is being produced by a low-budget company, it would be distributed through a limited indie release. This would be followed by a video on demand release. The film would also be released for sale on platforms like YouTube as there is not as larger of a fee as streaming platforms like Netflix or Hulu.
For these two CCR questions I was going to film it in the form of a street interview.
